Arrrgggghhhh!

DLA is paid to people who work as well as those who don't. Just wish people would understand the difference between DLA and ESA.

and also understand that they have to many cases to investigate properly as it is without being deluged with more.

Hey could I be classed as a benefit cheat? As I have been unemployed since last January and have not claimed a penny off of the state. Also my partner is disabled and she also refuses to claim as well? We have 3 children and one of them is Autistic. So all we live off is the Child benefit, Child tax credit and also the DLA that we get for the Autistic son or due to the morals that me and my partner has should we claim this for our son?

Re: Benefit Cheats (solution)
 

You are no benefit cheat in my mind and children with Autistic have many needs as my sister has a Autistic son and it is a lot of work to look after him, also people should think rationally before they start calling most people who claim benefits as benefit cheats, l claim DLA because of my serious illness so am l a cheat well l will leave people to form their own opinions on that.

we have never been close to be honest. She even had me arrested and tried tried having me done for assault claiming i had punched her in the face and injured her neck one christmas when i ejected her from my parents house after her bitching was causing problems.

When the police found out that she had prior neck injuries after a car accident when she claimed never to have suffered any neck problems before she claimed i attacked her they threatened her with making false police reports and i was let off.

I don't know why you don't claim what's rightfully yours.
think of it another way in that if you're not spending it. then someone who doesn't need it is spending it for you on drugs/booze/trips to France and expenses.

besides that. if you're not claiming any unemployment benefit then can you claim NHS and stuff? what about stamps/tax?

Indeed :tu:

I continually get accused of being one.

I had a long struggle with myself before I claimed what I could. I am made to feel guilty about doing so on a frequent basis.

I think it's only Welshchris that has mentioned DLA and working in the thread.

Re: Benefit Cheats (solution)
 

Yes I know what you mean in regards to this. I'am one of these who wants to work to support my family and partner, But due to the lack of jobs out there (I'am applying for all the basic jobs but getting nowhere). It does knock you as a person as you are unable to fetch in a wage for your family:(

But I will keep trying and hopefully it will pay off:erm: Me and my partner have grown up and had to endure the Miners strike, So living without stuff is second nature to us:(
